Yeah, well, it was ok, what one would expect from a POTC sequel...
Just can't get all that excited for POTC2, i dunno..., the first was fun for a while, yeah, but that's it. I'm not that into comedy, i prefer my movies having a more serious approach...

Oh, I dunno... DMC's gonna have quite a bit of serious stuff goin' on. In fact, the ending's expected to leave several audience members with tears in their eyes. (the sad kind; not from laughter)

How could anybody be expected to cry over these cookie-cutter characters?

Oh, c'mon. Nobody's going to shed a tear when [spoil]the Black Pearl sinks. As for Jack Sparrow, everybody knows Pirates 3 is following in less than a year. Nobody's going to buy his death as permanent.[/spoil]

Seriously, the biggest part of the twist ending is...
[spoil]Barbosa showing up in pirate hell, not what Elizabeth does.[/spoil]
I think that's what will get the most attention. And it's a "Holy shit!" ending.

Nice, I can't wait to see that in high-res Quicktime. As for him and his crew, they did look a bit fake, but I'll wait to see the final trailer. Even so, I'd take some spotty effects over a shitty story and overly serious tone in a second.

You know, i'll probably enjoy it like the next guy (have a few good laughs, gaze at the sfx and action), it's just not something i'm anticipating the whole year to watch it. Comprende? 
My official prediction:
$95m/$350m _________________

That's exactly how I feel about it as well. I am pretty sure I will like it. I think the original barely missed my Top 10 of 2003. It was a great funf flick, but I could certainly live without a sequel. I will enjoy it, but I'd be fine without it. I am anticipating M:I-3, X3 and Miami Vice much more. _________________The greatest thing on earth is to love and to be loved in return!

Not sure about Miami Vice, and X3 is a tie (director swap doesn't fill me we confidence), but MI3 definitely, and lately i'm getting more and more excited about Superman. Dunno, i always liked the character of Superman, his story. Superman and Batman (especially) are my favorite superheroes, Marvel characters just don't interest me as much. _________________

Oh, yeah, about the graphics... According to Terry Rossio, they *aren't* finished with them, so I expect them to look even *better* once the movie actually comes out. They don't even have a soundtrack yet.

Please keep the spoilers to a minimum.
And no, I don't think a cliffhanger ending will hurt the box office. Look what happened with Two Towers. And that was the CRAPPIEST ending in cinema history.
